8 years agoI went to visit my bf in NY, we went down twice, once for St. Patricks Day night fun. Which let me tell you was an awesome time. Such fun atmosphere and the locals are friendly looking to have a good time. Staff is super friendly and know how to make a drink. There was live music that night. Lots of fun. The second visit, the place was much quieter, staff still on point, we tried the bangers and mash, we had not had this dish before, it was delicious, we were both happy and full when we left.

year agoWhile living in Potsdam for the summer, I've checked out McDuff's a few times - for Stanley Cup hockey and weekly Wing Night. I've enjoyed every visit and can recommend them to you! A very clean and friendly village tavern overall. I can now expect cheery and friendly service from the bar, especially Brittany. The wings are very good and I have liked every sauce I have had. Coming from Western NY, I am a bit of a wing snob, and I have not been disappointed. The homemade blue cheese is tasty. They tend to serve it room temp, which I am not a fan of, but it isn't necessarily bad. Stop in and have some beer and wings! No better combination.

month agoWe went with kids for lunch and the menu is great for them and even better for adults. Get the wings - they are some of the best I’ve had and the fries are super crispy perfection. The service is also awesome - Mike was our server and was great.

2 months agoIf you wanna hang with friends, grab a drink and have good pub food, this is the place. It can get a little louder if towards the later hours and on weekends when the college people are here though. But that is to be expected and a good sign. The smashburgers are delicious. My husband had the BBQ one and he liked it a lot. Truffle fries delightful. Our waitress was super friendly and nice. I've been here about twice and each time she was very attentive and helpful.
